/Adriana Lima with Designer Abdel El Tayeb by Hassan Hajjaj Covers Vogue Arabia January 2022 AOC Fashion
Adriana Lima headlines the January 2022 issue of Vogue Arabia, a Celebration of Creativity and Fresh Talent. Lima appears in two of the four covers, shot on location in Qatar and Saudi Arabia.
The supermodel is photographed alone [above] and then with accomplished Sudanese-French designer Abdel El Tayeb [below] by Moroccan-British artist Hassan Hajjaj. The artist lives between London and Morocco and is often called the Andy Warhol of Marrakech.
Designer El Tayeb was photographed with Lima hours after the young designer accepted his debut talent prize — named the France Sozzani Debut Talent award — at the 2021 Fashion Trust Arabia awards. Vogue runs down the story about all the winners.
AOC loves the work of Hassan Hajjaj and we think he should be shooting for Loewe. Check out past features on the vibrant energy, social commentary artist who rocks to vibrating colors and patterns below..

Meet Moroccan-British Artist Hassan Hajjaj
Hassan Hajjaj Turns Moroccan Clichés Into London Cool New York Times 10/9/2019
Moroccan-born British photographer Hassan Hajjaj’s artistry figures heavily in Vogue’s March 2020 Billie Eilish editorial. Siddhartha Mitter sat down with the artist in October, in his joyously messy Shoreditch, East London studio.
“There are two kinds of artist,” Mr. Hajjaj said in the shop’s back area, with its banquettes made of Moroccan Coca-Cola crates topped with flower-print cushions. “There’s the artist that needs space, to be on their own to work, and there’s somebody like myself.” He scanned the scene. “There’s always an ambience.”
Mr. Hajjaj has become Morocco’s most visible artist, “taking over the entire Maison Européenne de la Photographie, the photography museum. The city’s mayor, Anne Hidalgo, attended the opening, which included Moroccan Gnawa musicians performing with Yasiin Bey, the rapper once known as Mos Def.”
